Woaaah! This was one of your coolest lessons and there are soooooo many. I was swinging like a crazy woman. Not caring what my neighbours thought! Merci.
Why thank you :-) I like you too. John is a Legend! Billie Holiday's version is of course a classic...I also like Louis Prima's version. So many great versions!
Thank you for sending good vibrations back to me (and I imagine you do this with many many people throughout your days). All the best, Happy playing, Stu
Dear Stu, your music has the destiny to make people feel really happy - thanks for spreading wonderfull moods to the world! Happy greetings from Germany.
Enjoyed this ! Thank you Stu. I can’t play hard for my trigger finger😓 in these days. I am taking this as a message that I need to let go my too much controling...
Well, I LOOOOOVE your solo version. That is some very tasteful playing you offered. Keep that solo warm under your fingers - you really played nicely. 🎶😊
🙏 Thank you for watching & joining in...and thank you for this video - I saw this on your channel page a nice meditation here: ruclips.net/video/k0PSUDvLi8E/видео.html
1)I am crazy about this lesson and I find with the speed and all ( I know I can slow it down, but I like the vitesse) I slip into chucking ( hey, this song has helped me, without intending improve my chuck, thanks), but I like this mellower sound. I suppose it depends if I use the index finger or the thumb while strumming . When I use the index, I tend to use the bottom (palm) part of my thumb.
Yes - wherever it feels natural, follow that. Just as long as your technique is LIGHT. That's key. Keep on searching for the effortless, ease of when something is known. Watch the body...feel the dance on the instrument....ENjoy :-)
2) The delicious UDU at the end adds so much flavour but overused it's less magical. It is nice to feel a surprise when it comes- how often should we had it? After certain chords? I know it's a matter of preference but any suggestions?
You can feel free there...Once you're in the pocket, just stretch out with your feelings & start to improv some strum effects...it becomes more jammy that way too. :-)
We recently did this song in concert; it's always fun played jazzy and loose in the syncopation. Some day I'd love to play the picking patterns and flourishes you do here, even half as fluidly as you do it. Right now, Until I get better at it I do a few slides here and there instead.
All of uke, why not learn all of uke... with UZ! I am amazed how you make what I thought a very melancholic song into something fun and happy. The image of the trampoline helps a lot to get the movement: maybe a way of transforming pain into energy and joy ? A languorous stroke and then a brisk whip... Merci beaucoup!
Yes Jane, you can! Same idea, different finger. Also sounds good with a straight forward DU DU DU DU strum w index...Hope you'll subscribe for more vids like this one...Be well & Happy playing, Stu
I would like to play like you🥺 but I've only had the ukulele for two month, so everything is ahead of me.. I hope:) You sing very well too. Besides, just looking at you puts me in a good mood. I use your lessons to learn. Thank you❤
Another superb video Stu. Thank you. This is a challenge for a beginner like me but I'm sure giving it a go. Can I ask you, when you mute it's difficult for me to stop it becoming a chunk so is that alright?
Hi Ramon, Yes - it's unfortunate! I think the estate of Chuck Berry has blocked the video in the EU. Never fear - an online course about rock and roll and rockabilly music is about halfway finished… I'll be announcing it on this channel soon as it's completed! Be well, Stu
Awesome!! I appreciate your kind comment and am very happy for your music making 😀 I’ve got more to enjoy at the channel and courses at my website too. Play on! www.stufuchs.com/store
Hi Aylett, The Ukulele played in this video is a custom Tenor Uke w/ Kasha Bracing System. Very unique ukulele made by a wonderful luthier… He is getting older so if you wanna get one reach out to him soon and get one while he's still making them! Made by Brian Griffin - P.S. Please tell him Stu sent ya’! www.griffinukuleles.com
I am getting like 3 beats instead of 2: 1 when i slow strum,1when i fast strum and 1 when i mute Unlike in yours where the fast strum and mute together are one beat. And my hand movement is also different from yours, i know I am doing it wrong but don't know how to correct it
Hi Kim, It's what I played...it is the songsheet. I'm following the chords & strum....the songsheet is a guide - jazz has lots of ad libbing - in tis version I stick pretty close to the page ;-)
Ukulele Zen Thanks Stu, I can actually do the mute but can’t get the “swing”. I just sound forced and robotic rather than relaxed and eh swing, bouncy, trampoliney BTW when is your next “how to sing & play for dummies” tutorial 🤔. Greetings from a sunny and more locked down Ireland. Every time we get even a regional lockdown the weather gets better.
great song and lesson but waaaaay to fast for me to play along with you. I could only get one strum per measure, but at least I muted that strum! I will have to slow it down a lot, although then you sound like somebody leaving the dentist with a numbed mouth that won't work and it makes me laugh.
Slowing it dooooowwwwnnnn is goooooooowwwoooood! 😉 Thanks for watching & joining in - my tempo is just one possibility of course - play it slower & it becomes a nice ballad 🎶

Glad you liked it! The thumb strum & gentle mute really gets things swinging 😉🎶

This strum works really well with 'What a Day for a Daydream' - John Sebastian's great song from the 60s.
Yes - that's a super cool swinging tune...hmmm - I think that should be lesson someday!
I am very glad to discover you! Although I cannot do what you teach in every video, it is very enjoyable to watch! ♥
Thank you so much and thank you for subscribing!
Great !!
🙏🌎🎶🌎☯️🔥🎉
Stu, you're incredible in teaching and encouraging!
Too bad, six people ain't swinging but hating.
Thank you Stu, as always wonderful!!!!!
Keep on swinging from a star...
This is Wunderbar… so love it…I’m a Cole Porter Girl! But I can’t get that slap/mute yet…working on it…

Phenomenal 👍
Thanks! 🙏🎶
thank you very much!!
This is really great!! I would really like it if you make another video on the introductory part too!!

Play on Was! (I was in a band called "The Waz" 20 yrs ago.
Its 2am. I wanna play this song *NOW*!!! My flatmate is going to hate me haha
Look like your flatmate is going to be staying up late! ;-)
I love this video and I find all your videos so helpful and inspiring! Thanks for all the great patreon content too.
Fantastic! thanks for sharing
Thanks Tom...Glad you enjoyed it! Share the vid & keep on swinging!

Thanks Jana - that bounce helps keep the swing! Ps. The Merci I said at the end was for you, Estelle and all the sweet folks in France 🇫🇷🤙🎶🙏🏻
Hi, loved your swing strum with All Of Me. Is it possible to make it work using my index finger? Thanks.
Jane ,from Down Under
Yes Jane, you can! Same idea, different finger. Also sounds good with a straight forward DU DU DU DU strum w index...Hope you'll subscribe for more vids like this one...Be well & Happy playing, Stu
Wow! ✌️Is there a sheet to follow printable? I love this beats 🎶💃🕺🌹 love it 😍
I love your arrangement, I would like to learn this song in gypsy jazz style :)
Sure thing Moli! We can do this in our private lessons...it's often one of the first major key Gypsy Jazz songs I teach 😊
@@UkuleleZen Oh Great! ^^ I am writing you en email now. i have some idea.
You play awesome chords! I enjoy learning this so much. Played guitar for long time, but I think uke is better voiced for jazz 😁
You are too advanced for me but i love it🤩
Thanks for watching and trying! Just so you know, I have lots of beginner friendly tutorials at my channels homepage “Ukulele Zen”. Play on, Stu 😊🎶🤙
Great❤❤❤
I would like to play like you🥺 but I've only had the ukulele for two month, so everything is ahead of me.. I hope:) You sing very well too.

Yes, absolutely - a silent mute is what I'm recommending, but a chuck is juuuust fine! Do YOUR thing ;-) Thanks Lisa
Hi Stuart,
please have a look at the comments under your Johnny B Goode video. Everyone has problems with playback, France, US, German.
Hi Ramon, Yes - it's unfortunate! I think the estate of Chuck Berry has blocked the video in the EU. Never fear - an online course about rock and roll and rockabilly music is about halfway finished… I'll be announcing it on this channel soon as it's completed! Be well, Stu
Awsome
you are SO fun! Love swing,, you rock !! now if I can just take five to get my knuckles untied .. LOL that was fun :)
Thanks Sher Lynn! Glad you liked it :-)
update :new found freedom found from this vidio, helped to cast off unneeded, restaints...
Awesome!! I appreciate your kind comment and am very happy for your music making 😀 I’ve got more to enjoy at the channel and courses at my website too. Play on! www.stufuchs.com/store
I now know...what I'll be playing for at least the next 3 months.
NICE! Keep swinging! I think Steve Martin had a movie of this same title ;)
I can't see a thing!! The ad won't go away. Not a usual problem.
Sorry about that Nick - try refreshing the page - you may have to "skip ad"...there shouldn't be any banner ads on this vid...

Where can i find the tab?
I am getting like 3 beats instead of 2: 1 when i slow strum,1when i fast strum and 1 when i mute
Unlike in yours where the fast strum and mute together are one beat.
And my hand movement is also different from yours, i know I am doing it wrong but don't know how to correct it
if 2:45 "really starts to cook" I'm at pot noodle stage of cookin'...
Dig it! I have Rocky Raccoon almost ready for you & Séan ;-)
@@UkuleleZen Super and the swing strum just "clicked" last night 😁
The music I printed out for this song, does not have what you are playing??? Why??
the music that you printed maybe in a different key
Hi Kim, It's what I played...it is the songsheet. I'm following the chords & strum....the songsheet is a guide - jazz has lots of ad libbing - in tis version I stick pretty close to the page ;-)
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

💙☯️🤙🎶🙌
wow............
Thanks for watching!
Dotted notes...or triplets
Yes - the rhythm has a swing triplet feel. Try this tutorial out to learn the fancy triplet strum fill: ruclips.net/video/Q0o3-bYsMT4/видео.html
My ukulele most be broken because it does not sound like that😱😂 i think the batteries are low👍
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Scoobi doo....i want to be like you!
Sorry I can't hit 'like' twice
Awww, thanks! Feel free to share it with a friend ;-). Be well & jam ON!
Man this is harder than you make it look 😭
Keep at it Gavin...the muting of the strings - is just a moment of touching the string lightly :)
Ukulele Zen Thanks Stu, I can actually do the mute but can’t get the “swing”.
I just sound forced and robotic rather than relaxed and eh swing, bouncy, trampoliney
BTW when is your next “how to sing & play for dummies” tutorial 🤔.
Greetings from a sunny and more locked down Ireland. Every time we get even a regional lockdown the weather gets better.
Show off
This isn't my favorite for a beginner. Song is not introduced (chords) and seems more about Stu's playing than teaching the student.
